    Abstract: Methods, apparatuses, systems, and storage mediums for correcting distortion of a spectrally encoded endoscopy (SEE) image are provided. A first reference pattern comprising a plurality of radial lines is scanned with an SEE spectral line to obtain a first image. Signs of a tangential shift and/or of a radial shift of the spectral line may be determined, and magnitudes of the tangential shift and of the radial shift may be computed. A second reference pattern comprising at least a circle with the SEE spectral line may be scanned to obtain a second image in a case where the radial shift is positive. The magnitude of the radial shift may be computed based on the magnitude of the tangential shift and a radius of the circle. The tangential shift and the radial shift may then be applied for correcting distortion.

    Abstract: A system and method of characterizing a color variation of a surface includes a device having a light source and a plurality of sensors positioned at respective viewing angles. An algorithm is stored on and executable by a controller to cause the controller to direct a beam of light at the measurement location with the light source and measure the light leaving the measurement location with the sensors at a plurality of azimuth angles to obtain respective measured color values. The controller is configured to define a color vector function F(θ, φ) to represent the color variation of the surface. The controller is configured to determine the color vector function F(θ, φ) based at least partially on the respective measured color values. The system allows for a representation of color space of a surface at any azimuth and viewing angle.
